Tears roll down my face as I open my eyes. Feeling deep pain not knowing why. I wipe the tears as I kneel down to pray. Only God can help me get through the day. Stand up and fight the Black Dog is all I can do. Think of happy things not to feel blue. No one can see this deep pain I carry inside. This Black Dog whispers in my ear only telling lies. Sometimes he attacks I can’t even stand. Feeling so beat up and battered no one to take my hand. I hope one day I find a leash. To put on this Black Dog and tigh him to a tree.

Black Dog
Tears roll down my face as I open my eyes. Feeling deep pain not knowing why. I wipe the tears as I kneel down to pray. Only God can help me get through the day. Stand up and fight the Black Dog is all I can do. Think of happy things not to feel blue. No one can see this deep pain I carry inside. This Black Dog whispers in my ear only telling lies. Sometimes he attacks I can’t even stand. Feeling so beat up and battered no one to take my hand. I hope one day I find a leash. To put on this Black Dog and tigh him to a tree.
Winston Churchill once called his depression (ABlackDog).
